Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Age 18 and older
- CMML diagnosis according to ICC 2022 criteria
- Intermediate-2 or high risk according to the molecular CMML Prognostic Scoring System (CPSS-mol, Elena Blood 2016)
- No prior treatment with HMAs. Prior treatment with Erythropoiesis Stimulating Agents (ESA) is allowed with a > 15 days washout from ESAs. Prior treatment with hydroxurea (HY) is acceptable.
- ECOG Performance status 0-2
- Adequate organ function: total bilirubin < 2 times upper limit of normal (ULN), ALT and AST < 3 times ULN, creatinine clearance > 30 mL/min.
You likely can't join if
- Myeloproliferative / myelodysplastic syndrome other than CMML
- Malabsorption syndrome or other condition that precludes an enteral route of administration
- Previous therapy with a hypomethylating agent for CMML or any antecedent condition
- Previous therapy with a BH3 mimetic
- Antecedent allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for CMML or an antecedent of hematological malignancy. Those never transplanted but eligible for HSCT are eligible for the trial.
- Subjects referred to in Articles L1121-5 to L1121-8-1 and L1122-1-2 of the Public Health Code
